Tortorella: What Are We Made Of?

From Dan Rosen at NHL.com:

As he prepares his team to do so Tuesday and then coaches them through the process a few hours later against the Washington Capitals at Verizon Center, he’s excited to find out a heck of a lot about the guys he’s got.

“Do they care? Absolutely,” Tortorella said Tuesday morning. “As we go through an experience like this, a Game 7—and, again I’m still learning a little bit about the personnel—there are certain levels of care. This is going to be a great experience for me in coaching this team in a Game 7 to see in this type of situation, with some of the things that have gone on in this series and all the stuff going on around them, how guys handle it.

“I think we have got good people, but I always believe that people can care, and then people can really care,” he continued. “We’ll find out as they go through, but I hope all 20 of them really care. Those are the things I look at as we continue to grow.”
